Current Major Arterial Asphalt & Concrete Paving Projects

The City's Arterial Asphalt and Concrete Program resurfaces several streets each summer with the larger goal of enhancing both mobility and safety citywide. The projects are prioritized and selected by SDOT's Pavement Engineering and Management Section based on pavement condition, volume and type of traffic, identified needs of residents and businesses, opportunities for coordination with other capital projects, and identified maintenance and liability concerns. These paving projects include enhancements such as improved curb ramps and sidewalks, providing a safer and more convenient pedestrian environment, as well as road markings and signal detectors to help bicycles and vehicles share the road more safely.

In March of 2008 the Seattle City Council unanimously passed an accelerated paving plan so that downtown streets will be completed by 2012 when the Alaskan Way Viaduct replacement project begins. With the costs of materials escalating, the accelerated plan is also key to ensuring funds are utilized efficiently in repairing the major routes serving downtown.
